I would like to see a little bit more original.

You look at the piece of paper in front of you with trepidation, remembering the last times you tried writing something with it ending terribly. However, looking at "The Prince'' beside you, you smirked as you imagined a world of your own making with a singular character.
You begin writing out the background information, the Renaissance. A great mentor figure you will have for your protagonist..Leonardo Da Vinci is tempting, but he had too much showtime in the world..
You look back at the book and have a spark of inspiration! Machiavelli isn't as well known globally compared to Da Vinci, but with the right luck could be one of the greatest greats of History! You then place down the mentor of the protagonist as "Niccolo Machiavelli".
Additionally, you began utilising multiple dice to reflect about the idea of luck and being able to forge a story out from those high and low possibilities for the character and the world around him.
Having the essentials of a proper story, you begin to write a story that you hope will change the world, to finally get Machiavelli the proper respect and what he could do if having enough luck..
TITLE: Renaissance
GENRE: Alternate History, Action, Politics, Military/Navy
SUBGENRE: Alternate History of the Renaissance, Early Risorgimento, Military and Navy Battles
FORMAT: 2 Seasons (Episodes per season varies from 10 up to 20, 25 at max)
BASIC PROMPT: These two seasons follow one Luciano Graziani during the Renaissance Era. How he started off as a simple child of Italy's greatest gunsmith, to becoming the King of Italy under the guidance of his mentor Niccolo Machiavelli.
Plot (May Change in favour of story flow, etc.):
This essentially follows the
Luciano Renaissance Quest Up to its last chapter. (Book one ends with "All Hail King Luciano!" (Or something that sounds better), Book two ends with the aftermath of the Ottoman-Italian War).
However, the plot may change to fit in more details from the time of Italy to give an illusion that it is actually historically accurate (for the clothing, machinery, etc.), interlude episodes (optional), and definitely showing the Military Battles (Example: Battle of Rome) and Navy Battles (Example: The Pillage of the Mediterranean Coast), and other character development and expansion the quest didn't go into.
"Bruce!" Cat called out from the opened door. "Why are you sleeping on the desk? Making love letters with someone?" She smirked an infuriating smile at you before you groggily looked back at her.
"Just trying to write something!" You grumbled before looking back at the stack of paper that was sitting innocently in front of you. You look at it with narrowed eyes. "I wouldn't be surprised if this story becomes a book series from start to end."
"You haven't come down for days..though." She speaks behind you, startling you and awaking your stomach, she deadpans while gesturing to your stomach while you blush in embarrassment.
"Fine." You sigh before walking out to the dining table with your sister, closing the door as the story still repeats itself to your head, in anticipation of what would happen after the entire war.
N/A: When thinking about the pitches, the first one I thought of is this one as I could see it fitting some kind of TV show that will hopefully have less hate than GoT. Additionally, also thought this could actually work in terms of book series if we ever go that route, and this would introduce historical characters unknown to the world (Machiavelli is less well-known compared to Da Vinci).
